Appologies! I'll from now on call you Big Bear (assuming "graut" means "big") :).
"Great" at "big" anku hâi namai naito ramok.
I think "great" is a better translation than "big".

Ama te ed kilai sor dai, lino Berulan pas bâihi at ad anku? Ama pon ti erai irhe?
Perhaps because Bearlandic is similar to your native language? Or at least those two words?
